Note: ANY AMC 199/232/258 from 1964-71 will work. A 1956-65 195.6 (OHV
or L-head) is the same bolt pattern and should also work. If anyone on
the list can help, please drop Rick a line! And Rick, I'd appreciate it
if you dropped me a note if you've found one. 

As far as thickness, that should be the same as a later model. Thickness
is virtually the same on all the AMC engines, if that helps. I know it
varies a few thousandths of an inch, but that shouldn't be an issue. I
ran a 1979 plate behind a 1987 4.0L, and the thickness was the same as
my old 1963 195.6 as far as I could tell. The 1963 transmission didn't
mind it! (63 T-96/OD, 79 plate and bell, 87 4.0L -- what a combo! No,
the T-96 didn't last long...)

Allright I going to ask for your HELP one more time. I am
rebuilding a
1967 J3000 pickup & I need a bellhousing shim plate for 232 six
cylinder. I got this truck in a basket & there were a few parts
missing in the drive train, I have found most of what I need but
I am
still missing the shim plate. The newer 232s & 258s shim plates
will
not work on this engine because the bell housing is smaller than
the
new ones. I could really use an original one but I could fab one
myself if I knew what the relative thickness was. So if one of
you
other JEEP NUTS out there could help a guy out it would really
be
helpfull. GIVE IT UP GUYS & HELP ME OUT I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS
THING
BACK TOGETHER. THANKS & KEEP IT OFF THE ROAD.
